In my school KarsÄ±yaka Anatolian High School, I have been doing projects since I returned back from my Exchange Program of Youth Leadership.I think it is one of the geatest opportunities I have had in my life time.I encourage and support youth engagement in Exchange Programs.Since 2009 fourteen students from my class have had this golden opportunity.Currently my students are participating in a Youth Lab Program with their Armenian and American peers.Youth Lab Program is great as it aims to strengthen ties between different nations and cultures.Thanks for giving us great chance and providing youth with tools and skills for making a difference in their lives.I am looking forward to Global Twitter Q&A .Kind regards,
